My Students

As a Title I school teacher with a large population of students living in poverty, we are faced with a variety of challenges daily. Most concerning is the number of students who have experienced horrific trauma in their young lives. I take great pride in providing my fifth graders with a positive and safe school experience. I am very fortunate to teach in a school where expectations for children and staff are high.

Students at our school and in my classroom rise to meet our high standards, both academically and behaviorally even while families are still rebuilding their lives after hurricane Harvey.

They are active, eager, and engaged. Our students are spirited scholars, working hard to overcome their challenges and grow to be the best that they can be.

My Project

I am requesting a pallet of copy paper that will serve all teachers and their classrooms in our school throughout the year. This isn't the most glamorous item but it is essential for any school. With this donation you will be helping teachers and students get the information they need in front of them. Students will be able to print and track their academic data.

Please join us on our journey for copy paper so that our students do not have to worry about having handouts, readings and tests printed on paper.

With this donation you will be helping a community follow along with the information their teacher/school is presenting.
